Default Handle repair Bush TR82d

One of the plastic discs covering the spindle of the handle of this Bush radio was missing (did not notice it when I bought it at a car boot sale, unless lost during transportation).
I have used a plastic top of a sherry bottle adapted to fit the handle.
Not exactly looking like the original, but better than nothing and keeps the handle in place.

Assuming it's the second photo, looks perfect, nice one. What's the first photo?

The first photo shows the other original spindle (on the left) and the one on the right is the sherry top during modification. Second photo is the finished product.
